The hierarchy of presentations
via d13m: some food for thought.
Nice blogpost by Seth Godin:
The purpose of a presentation is to change minds. That’s the only reason I can think of to spend the time and resources. If your goal isn’t to change minds, perhaps you should consider a different approach.
- The best presentation is no presentation at all. If you can get by with a memo, send a memo. I can read it faster than you can present it and we’ll both enjoy it more.
- The second best presentation is one on one. No slides, no microphone. You look me in the eye and change my mind.
- Third best? Live and fully interactive.
- Powerpoint or Keynote, but with no bullets, just emotional pictures and stories.
- And last best… well, if you really think you can change my mind by using tons of bullets and a droning presentation, I’m skeptical.
A presentation isn’t an obligation, it’s a privilege.

The Passe Partout Clock comes with 12 individual frames that you customize by filling each of them with photographs, drawings, postcards, comics, small toys, wallpaper, dried flowers, beads or whatever you can come up with. You can also arrange the frames around the clock’s hand piece in any position you want. This way you have a totally unique clock decorating your wall.
